Her first card features the snowboarding moose from our retiring Moose Mountain Stamp Set:

This card features a gorgeous orange and yellow background that was stenciled using inks with our Snowfall Stencil. She also used our Land Borders Die Set and Sea Borders Die Sets to cut white snow.  and added black tree silhouettes using our Forest Scene Builder Die Set. The whole scene was cut out with our Frames & Flags Die Set to give it a scalloped edge. 

Her second card features the sweet llama with gifts on his back from our retiring Llama Delivery Stamp Set:

For this card she created a square layout using our Frames Squared Die Set to create the layers. She added stars to the sky using our Cascading Stars Stencil. Stars and a cloud were die cut using our Sky Scene Builder Die Set. She also added snowy hills using our Land Borders Die Set and Sea Borders Die Sets.

Here are instructions from Ellen for creating these cards:

• (Left photo above): I stamped the images using Llama Delivery Stamp Set and the Moose Mountain Stamp Set and colored them with copic markers. Colors listed below:
  
  LLAMA:
  Red: R27, R24, R22
  Green: YG05, YG03, YG01
  Teal: BG13, BG11, BG10
  Blue: B00, B02
  White: E43, E41, E40
  Grey: C9, C7, C5
  
  MOOSE:
  Blue: Bg09, BG07, BG05 + BG13, BG11, BG10
  Yellow: Y14, Y12, YR02
  Orange: YR09, YR07, YR20
  Red: R39, R29, R27, R24
  Grey: W4, W3, W1
  Black: 100, C9, C7
  Brown: E29, E27, E25, E23
  
  
• (Center photo above): I colored the backgrounds with ink and went over them with a stencil and the same ink. This creates a pretty tone on tone background.
  
  
• (Right photo above): At the last step I die cut some trees and clouds form the Sky scene builder and Forest scene builder die set.
